The Greene School is a Rhode Island charter high school located in West Greenwich. The Greene School strives towards cultivating environmentally conscious students, who are capable of innovating and solving the global issues of today and tomorrow. Although the Greene School mainly focuses on the intangible learning within nature that its students will need for combating the world’s problems, the school also performs above averagely on standardized tests. Much of the school’s academic proficiency may be due to the high socioeconomic status of the surrounding West Greenwich. Although the school is less than diverse demographically and testing scores are, by and large, unimpressive the school staff attempt to avoid just playing "The Game of School" and try to teach students meaningful knowledge that will create the future leaders needed in order to save the planet from ecological meltdown.
